First, I'm very sorry if this thread is in the wrong forum. This was what I thought was the most pertinent forum...

Anyway, I'm screwing around with gadgets, specifically the System object. However, a couple of events do not function properly:


  • System.Machine.PowerStatus.powerLineStatusChanged
  • System.Network.Wireless.connectionChange
  • System.Network.Wireless.signalStrengthChanged
Any functions registered to these events fail to fire when the event has taken taken place. The function is fine and fires when used akin to "System.Gadget.onUndock = myFunction;". When I try to examine the value of these events, they are a blank string; not "undefined" or an error, just "".

Would anyone venture to guess why? x64 Vista and Sidebar, SP1.
